Jakes has been a Hillary supporter for years.
His take on abortion:
“Go ahead and preach against abortion,” he told his mostly black audience of ministers and lay people.
“But when you get through preaching against abortion, give us some milk up in here, so that we can feed the babies you told us we ought to have.”
